I wont swear and if i have im sorry but i will speak my mind.
I'm Sorry if you dont like it, I'm not saying this to be confrontational of course or to upset the momentum of the thread. I will try to maybe not sound as forceful as i maybe did in my last post.

start an alternative friday update thread to speak your mind in?

No exposure to the goofs on the forum with the untreated or undermedicated personality disorders.

Something to counter balance the prevailing negative aura.

Even though it's going against the fundamental principles of a forum I think that would be better than what we have today. As Ilya doesn't have time to read the 30 page thread that every sentence he writes results in, I guess the best thing would be a locked developer update thread like the old one Oleg had, with no stickied comment thread for each update that Ilya will not have time to read anyway (or he should go with train to work like me where tapatalk on my Android phone is actually better than reading the forum in a regular browser) . Then keep heavily moderated bug reporting thread for each beta/release with detailed instructions about how to report a bug or it will be deleted...

i would like to see a friday update thread that is locked. Actually i would like to see all information divulged by any developer Locked and treated as the be all and end of all that is to be said on the matter.

The fact of the matter is that what we discuss thereafter is upsetting for some. frustrating for others, pleasing for many all be it temporarily. just stop it and treat the information with the respect it deserves.

locked threads allow the information to be contained and archived and understood by ourselves more efficiently not to mention delivered in a more professional manner.

A " locked Thread " serves two functions , it may encourage more input from the dev. team and it is a time saver for the folks who want to hop on the forum and quickly check for updates and carry on.

They haven't tentatively scheduled a "so called patch", but are working on a patch with much improved sound and terrain palette, which may come out soon.

After you'll use less question marks.

Friday Development Update, maybe drop the Friday so the perception of regular updates is removed, that could save some frustration.
